I am running an application that needs jack, so obviously I install jack! However when trying to start jack with qjackctl I get a huge running list of errors:

A little bit of research on this topic shows that this may be down to the fact that I am also running pulseaudio, which doesnt allways play nice with Jack. I have tried 10/15 different fixes (stopping the pulseaudio daemon etx) but still get the same list of errors
